Chicony(?) KB6151

[daedalus]

Found this keyboard being dumped out of my college. It has some sort of linear switch that is stem compatible with Cherry MX. Judging by the model number, I presume it is a Chicony keyboard, although I cant be certain. The keyboard is missing the left Ctrl cap due to the stem for the switch having broken off.





Keycaps seem pretty sturdy. Not double shot, but lack of wear and high contrast may suggest dye sublimation.

The keyboard is nothing special, and the switches are pretty mediocre, even by the standards of linears. If someone wants the caps, I'd be happy to oblige.

EDIT: Taken




(Oh, and the larger keycaps seem to have a Costar-like stabilizer mount)

I like how it has two arrow keys going to the left!

They look like really old NEC switches.

Yes very much like the old NEC switches. Makes me sorta interested.

Believe me, they are nothing interesting at all. They feel like any cheap, old, linear keyboard from the 80s.

You should have said: It is... interesting. $20?

Good to keep it in Europe. I have too many incoming boards for my own good atm.
